Benefits of technology

[0006]An object of the present invention is to provide a dosing device capable of providing a more accurate measuring, an improved sealing, increased discharging and dosing

Problems solved by technology

In the prior art dosage device, there is also a problem of leaking fluid, i.e. fluid leaking from the inside of the container to the outside.
This is especially inconvenient when the container is filled with oil or oily fluids, whereby leakage of fluid soils the outside of the container making the container and its cap smeary.
This means that the finger pres

Embodiment Construction

[0037]FIG. 1 discloses a measuring and dosage device 10 according to the invention and an inventive protective cover 60 mounted onto a container 40. The measuring device 10 according to the invention shown in FIG. 2 comprises an inventive cap 20 (shown in detail in FIGS. 6-6B), an inventive measuring actuator 30 (shown in detail in FIGS. 7-10), a spring 50 for biasing the actuator inside the cap away from the container, and the protective cover 60 (shown in detail in FIGS. 11-15). The measuring actuator 30 is removably and movably received in the cap 20. Each of the components of the measuring device 10 is substantially hollow with a substantially rounded shape, preferably cylindrical shape, but may of course have any other suitable shape, e.g. a square or triangular shape, even though a rounded symmetrical shape is preferred in regard of a more uniform pressure distribution and minimization of fluid leakage, i.e. a rounded shape enhances the sealing and the distribution of pressure...

Abstract

The invention relates to a measuring actuator (30), a measuring cap (20), a protective cover (60), a measuring unit, and a device for fixed and variable measuring and discharging of fluid from a container. The actuator (30) being configured for detachable and movable connection to the cap and adapted for sealing off fluid when in a non-actuated state and to discharge fluid when in an actuated state, the actuator comprising at least two openings, a discharge opening (31) and a fluid inflow opening (32); the cap-comprising at least three openings, a discharge opening and an actuator receiving opening and a fluid inflow opening; the measuring unit comprising the cap,’ the actuator, and a spring (50); the cover (60) for protecting the measuring unit being configured for attachment to the cap (20) and/or the measuring unit; and the measuring device comprising the cover (60), the cap (20), the actuator (30), the spring (50), and the container.

Description

TECHNICAL FIELD OF THE INVENTION[0001]The present invention relates to a measuring device for measuring, measuring in, dosage, and discharging of fluids, liquids or powder from a container, with two functions, both fixed and optional, i.e. variable discharge of fluid.DESCRIPTION OF RELATED ART[0002]Commercial distribution and sale of viscous substances are as a rule performed with the substance in question contained in consumer-adapted containers in the shape of cans, jars, boxes, or bottles of different types. Most types of such containers are often in some way recloseable, e.g. by being provided with a lid for closing an opening in the container, or with a cap which can be tightly screwed to a threaded opening of the container and thereby sealing it. Different types of pourable substances that are packed in this way comprise beverages, oils, body and hair products, solvents, toners, powders, fluids for use in medical and dentist treatments, but also solid products such as vegetabl...
